Welcome home to 5 Hickory, more well known as the hobbit house. This circa 1920s cape with Tudor accents and tons of character, was very thoughtfully updated and modernized while maintaining all the original architectural features. Beautifully landscaped with a terraced rock wall and wildflower garden in front and no houses behind the property blocking the view. Once inside you will notice the bright and airy feel of the main floor, as the numerous windows allow much natural light to filter through. The living space with original fireplace is an open floor plan flowing seamlessly into a large dining area just off the kitchen that serves well for entertaining. Refinished hardwood floors and Marmoleum flooring in the sunlit kitchen with breakfast area, offers access to the backyard patio and detached garage. The main level offers a wide array of possibilities with a private suite of two bedrooms and full bath. Can be used as bedrooms, a nursery, home office or tv room. The upper level also has two bedrooms and full bath, and the lower level has an unfinished partial basement with laundry/storage area and utilities. THE NEIGHBORHOOD Prime Location!
